Much to my delight, my order for the Star Wars Rebels/Saga Legends Mission Series assortment arrived today courtesy of Entertainment Earth. The cases includes: 3x Zeb/Stormtrooper, 3x R2-D2/C-3PO, 2x Luke Skywalker (Bespin)/Darth Vader, 2x Darth Sidious/Yoda and 2x Boba Fett/Stormtrooper. Click on through for carded images as we prep toyguide entries for each of these.
Our friends at The Wolfpack Podcast scored the Target Exclusive Star Wars RebelsTIE Advanced Prototype with Inquisitor figure from Target. It appears that the assortment breaks down as follows 2x Phantom with Kanan and 1 TIE Advanced Prototype with Inquisitor.
Thanks to a tip from a local collecting friend at JediDefender, I managed to find the Target Exclusive Star Wars RebelsThe Phantom Attack Shuttle with Kanan vehicles on shelf. Oddly enough, it shares the same DPCI with the non-exclusive vehicles (087-06-1382) so doing a search won’t necessarily yield success in finding them.
Reminder, the next Star Wars Rebels episode “Rise of the Old Masters” airs tonight on DisneyXD. The rebel crew undergoes a rescue mission only to face a powerful foe.
K & C Collectibles has in-stock the New Star Wars Hot Wheels Character Cars and Playset. Also new Holiday Ornaments from Hallmark and Gentle Giant Hoth Wampa and Luke Skywalker Hoth Battle Gear. We also have in stock Wave 4 & 5 Black Series 3 3/4″ action figures. Click the NEW PRODUCT link for a complete list of recently added items.
As a reminder, ABC tonight is airing Star Wars Rebels: Spark of Rebellion with bonus footage of Darth Vader voiced by James Earl Jones. It will be brief, but should be memorable. Check your local listings for air times.
Our show returns this week as Flyguy and I discuss the latest in Star Wars collecting. All has been quiet on the Black Series front in the US, but our neighbors to the south recently had a huge roll out of the Black Series line at Walmart that included the Prototype Boba Fett as well as a slick Limited Edition lithograph. On the other side of the pond, UK collectors are getting Star Wars Rebels action figures by way of Disney Stores as US collectors are still coming up empty. Sideshow and Medicom give us some “Rebels” teases of their own and we highlight a few notable custom pieces — all on Episode 37 of The Realm Recap!
Our friends at JediNews passed word to us via Instagram that the long awaited Star Wars Rebels figures are starting to hit Disney Stores in the UK. The image above was from the Milton Keynes location. Stock included basic figures and Mission Series sets.
